Abstract
The purpose of the present invention is to provide a straddle-type vehicle that enables reducing the number of components. Between front forks at the bottom edge of a top bridge configuring a motorcycle, a stay is provided which supports turn signals on each of the front forks. In this case, the stay is configured from a single member. Further, a stay fixing unit for fixing the stay and a first front fork fixing unit for fixing the front forks are provided on the top bridge. By this means, it is possible for the stay to be a single common member that supports turn signals on each of the front forks.
